So my bumper came in a few days ago and i got to say the welds on this thing are amazing. I need to do some touch ups when the weather gets better. but in the mean time gotta do some wheeling.

I have the Tom Woods SYE kit and drive shaft for my NP242 case. No problems with Tom Woods thus far. I recommend their stuff if you like buying new.

I'm in monkey Junction, I would love to get some decent pics of it one of these days. The 17 moabs are good for looks that's about it, I'm gonna put on 15s when the tires wear out. The price per tire is to high to run 17s for me
